I use mine for songs and games on my computer.there a multi perpose head set, comes with a adapter if you wanted to use with a base Guitar or amp.for the price they have a great sound to. so yes they are great for general use and for anything you do on a pc.

I don't know how good HA-V570 are, but these JVC HARX300 are great and are the best that I've had so far!

I would say no. These sound good, but are not comfortable long term. They appear comparable to the HA-V570 based on the specs and price. May I suggest upgrading to the JVC's HA-RX700 series? They are in the $30 to $35 range and are my regular headphones.

Hey Joel, I would give these a 9. The sound is really good and accurate, specially when playing battlefield or The Last of Us. You can hear all the sounds and the direction they are coming from and you also get really good battery life. The setup is really easy also. Check out my review you can see how the setup is. Hope I helped.

I recommend the Sennheiser HD448s. They sound great and are very clear like the 595s, which I also own. However, they need a good 50+ hours of burn in to really reach their full potential.

I use these for CSGO as well and I definitely noticed an improvement over my "gaming" headphones. I can hear foot steps and the direction of gun fire more accurately. Accute sounds are no longer drowned out by overpowering bass rattle. The open back also caused less issues with ear pain because the bass pushing air in my ear canal with the closed back ones I had. When I bought my set I bought the headphones, a Sennheisser HH10 Headphone holder, Large CASEBUDi Headphones case (for lan parties), and a FiiO E17 Alpen Headphone AMP/DAC.I love the E17 as an amp/dac because it just works. It gives me volume control right there at the unit and drives these headphones with ease. I use these for CSGO as well and I definitely noticed an improvement over my "gaming" headphones.

Hit answer by mistake; they are good headphones; I would cation if used for extended use and confirm the return policy of the seller. Then wear them for the day see how they feel. Good luck in your search.

I would say yes. I use it to watch movies, listen to music, check audio when I'm recording on professional equipment, and edit my videos. The sound quality is always excellent. These are very versatile and well-priced headphones!

I have used them for gaming when my regular headphones broke, but not for regular use. If u had nothing else, I guess they would be fine, but not as a first choice. You can still hear too much background noise. Hope that helps! : )

Newegg is ignoring the release date and selling them. There are 5 reviews up there if you wish to read them. I bought a pair and I'm pretty happy with them but the 7.1 drivers aren't available yet (probably the reason for the delay). They just install as USB Stereo headset at the moment. Bluetooth sounds pretty good on my phone (but still bluetooth). The PS3 ones cut out a lot over bluetooth attached to my Surface but these ones are better (although I still use the USB because it's better than bluetooth).

Ok I can only speak to my personal use. I only listen to HD with my Bose OE. I enjoy the sound quality of the over ear headphones. Hope it helps

the bass is very good. but the volume isn't up to par, I'd like them to be louder. I've been looking, the Beats Studio Wireless Over-Ear Headphone. are loud enough but not sure that is the sound that I'd be looking for. I own a pair of V-Moda m 100's and love them. only if they'd make a bt headphones.

Hi William. I'm not a audiophile by any means, but the highs on these specific headphones seem to be okay for their price. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, i have not had the chance to play games with them since i use them for my office. However, they sound very good when playing music from my Jango account. The bass is very good for this system that i have to turn it down on the sub.

it depends on the bluetooth adapter speed and quality of the Internet connection. But in my opinion is better to use these headphones for listening to music) Good luck and good mood)

Sure, why not!? Perfect for gaming, pro audio, live sound, whatever. No built in microphone, so if you are using them to communicate with other people, not a good choice. For listening only. Hope this helps...

The question above is the critical one - you can alwys spend more and get better. BUT let me add this: for an immediate, and mind-blowing upgrade at less than 15 bucks, go out and get yourself a pair of Koss KSC75s. They are light on the ears, small, and easy to transport. However, they sound incredible not only "at this price range" but in their own right. Get that purchase over with and then you can think about whether you want to spend more or not. But trust me on this, for most folks the Koss's are fantastic. You won't be disappointed. No I don't work for Koss, but I'd be willing to. Koss KSC75 Portable Stereophone Headphones

Yes you do! But depend on what are you going to do with it. I had this original for my PC. I gotta say, they are quite nice on playing battlefield 3. All the surrounding were amazing. And it has some low base humming. However, I bought a cheap sub after I moved it to my living room and hooked to a tv for watching movie. It really depend on what kind of receiver you have. However, if you do plan to bring your friends home and have a great movie beer night, the sub is a must

hi Jerad, I am not a old customer of this product, so give me a few more months to test the Skullcandy earbuds for an honest answer to your concerns of long lasting quality.Larry
